FAMILY PICTURES
family pictures will begin IMMEDIATELY after the ceremony inside the church. PLEASE let your family know not to leave after the ceremony. It takes time to gather family members for photos. Pre-assign a family member or friend who knows the people to be in the pictures so they can round them up for the photos. And have a list. Getting people where they need to be for the photos is the most time consuming part.
FAMILY PHOTOS LIST
*
This is very important. Please use this area to list each family grouping (using names/relationship to you) that you would like during your family formals time after the ceremony. This list will help make things go very smoothly and will keep everyone organized. We will use this list to call out each group of family members to get them ready for their photo. We recommend making two lists for each side of the family.
example: Bride + Bride's mom
bride + bride's dad
bride + bride's parents
bride + bride's immediate family
bride + bride's sister
FORMAL GROUP PHOTOS

COCKTAIL HOUR:
please indicate what time this begins. Also, would you like a photographer at the cocktail hour?
BRIDE & GROOM PORTRAITS:
please indicate if you would like to do this during cocktail hour, during sunset, or both. In order to allow for a private photo session of bride and groom, we will need at least half an hour of your time alone with the photographer. This can be done before or after the ceremony. I highly recommend to make time during both cocktail hour and sunset/ golden hour. We can make sure the DJ has people dancing and we will sneak you away for a gorgeous sun set session with the most beautiful light ever!
